Protect probes from pressure, flow, and corrosive fluids.
Thermowells on this page are machined from solid bar stock.
Specify reduced tip style for fast response, tapered style for
maximum rigidity in high flow conditions.
Immerse the thermowell at least 2.5" (65 mm) for accurate readings.
The well should extend beyond the center of the fluid stream
without touching the opposite wall. Installation in an elbow or tee
may be necessary for sufficient immersion in small pipes.
Spring-loaded probe installation is recommended, using either
spring-loaded holders or bayonet-mount probes. 0.250" diameter
probes provide the best fit.
For fastest time response, Minco can furnish thermowells with
heat sink compound in the tip. This eliminates the air gap
between the probe and inside wall of the well and can reduce
time constant by as much as 50%. Order AC101750.
